Cafe Coffee Day

This shop is in Hauz Khas, which is a bit of a maze if you aren't used to it. We are one of those spots where you can just sit down and watch the world go by through the window. It is not a very large place, so it can feel a bit cramped when more than three groups come in at the same time. We have some small tables and chairs that we rearrange constantly to make room. The walls have some marks on them and the floor shows the wear of many people walking in from the dusty streets outside. We don't really have a fancy philosophy or anything like that. We just open up in the morning, brew the pots, and wait for the first customers to wander in. Usually, it is students or people who live nearby in the village. It can be quiet during the middle of the day, which is when we get most of our cleaning done. Then the evening comes and the whole area wakes up. We see a lot of people who are just passing through on their way to the park or the bars nearby. It is a simple job in a busy neighborhood. We try to keep the place tidy, but with so many people, it is a constant battle. That is just how life is here. We are just a local spot for a quick break.
